A great piece of news from the HSUS re its accomplishments for the year 2011in the field of animal concern. I'm sure we all had something to be grateful for this Thanksgiving, and for those of us who care about animals, it is so good to readwhat the HSUS did for them within its different agencies. Here is the list they shared with us:

1. 27,215 pets and other animals received veterinary care or other assistance from the Humane Society International

2. 5,878 dogs, cats, and other animals were helped by our Animal Rescue Team

Now the sad news from Romania. From Serbian Animals Voice comes this heading: "Romania: The Hated Nation of the EU Who Complies With No Regulations. The Bent and Corrupt PD-L Party Wins the Vote to Kill All Stray Dogs."

Despite months of national protest, hundreds of petitions, vote delays and false hope, the Romanian Chamber of Deputies has pushed through the vote for mass killings. Hundreds of thousands of strays and public shelter dogs will be killed using the most cheap,illegal, and barbaric means.

Per this Serbian Animals Voice writer -"The collection, incarceration, and finally the incineration of the murdered dogs is big business for many corrupt officials and thecompanies they employ to do this dirty work and they just cannot let this golden opportunity pass them by."

I thought that Romania had a chance to recover from the many years of cruelty theysuffered under former dictator Ceausescu, but it seems that they are emulating his cruel ways in the handling of these poor stray and shelter dogs. Ceausescu torturedand killed his people at will, and now his successors are about to kill most cruellythousands and thousands of innocent dogs unless there is a huge outpouring of concern by people who care and want this carnage to cease. Though officially notsigned by the president, in some places they have already started the killing.

Carmen Arsene, the leader of the political campaign against this terrible vote, is still urging everyone who really cares to contact key players that are listed here -this one last time in the hope that they may reconsider and show mercy and kindness.

Here are the important players who need to hear from us if there is any chance theywill change their minds:

I have been concerned about animal suffering ever since
I received my first puppy Peaches in 1975. She made me take a good look at the animal kingdom and I was shocked to see how badly we treat so many animals. At 77, I've been a vegan for the (more...)
